Chapter 51
-Does this make sense…… ?
Jihad could not believe the sight before his eyes.
Wow!
[You have succeeded in parrying!]
[Let go of the attack.]
The sight of a very angry Karuk dodging or letting go of all his attacks and trampling them was such an unfamiliar sight.
The reaction comes out without a single error, as if he knew in advance what kind of attack was coming.
It certainly didn’t seem to be moving fast, but all attacks were being blocked.
Suddenly – boom!
And even the art of injecting attacks into every gap that is revealed.
Wow!
[Hidden Field Boss ‘Goblin Warrior Karuk’ delivers a ‘merciless blow’.]
An angry Karuk took advantage of the lack of parrying to attack Do-hyun, who was cornered against the wall, with all his might, but it was Do-hyun’s plan.
Tak, Whirik-.
The moment the ax was about to hit his skull, he stepped on the wall briefly and used the momentum to roll quickly to avoid it.
[Use a lunge slash.]
Then, Do-hyun landed on one foot and simultaneously used a diagonal backward lunge to position himself in Karuk’s blind spot.
In an instant, the position changed to the exact opposite. From a disadvantageous position to an advantageous position.
Phew! Puff puff!
Then, he suddenly plunged the great sword into his side and continued to punch him.
The sound of a bloody strike echoed throughout the habitat.
-Ugh, okay. That’s what happened to me.
Jihad frowned at that sight as if he couldn’t see it.
Seeing what had happened to me from a third party’s perspective, I couldn’t grieve this much. At the same time, I felt relieved.
-That’s why I got into trouble…… .
Now that I look at it, wasn’t it designed so that I had no choice but to suffer?
He annoys the opponent with parrying and unique movements, deliberately drives them to the wall, induces them to use special moves, and then moves backwards to counter.
It was designed to remove the opponent’s special move and deliver the most powerful blow at the same time.
I didn’t know why it happened when it happened, but when I saw it from a distance, I understood everything.
The only difference is that now it doesn’t suddenly disappear like when it fought with itself, but instead rolls over directly, but the principle is the same.
-…… Is that really a human?
Although he is my master, I honestly have my doubts.
Not only did he dodge and dodge every attack and not even allow a single correct hit, but how can humans be so good at taking advantage of the opponent’s psychology?
At this moment, Jihad truly thought.
-It was a good thing I didn’t fight back anymore…… .
What if I gritted my teeth and fought back because of my pride?
Wouldn’t that Karuk’s appearance become his own?
…… Thinking like that gave goosebumps all over her body.
From now on, I started to think that I should listen well and pick up items without being rude when asked to do something.
[Loyalty increases by +2.]
‘huh? suddenly?’
Suddenly I didn’t do anything?
Do-hyun was momentarily startled by the message that his loyalty had suddenly increased during the battle, but his movements were like swords.
Swish-sud!
Although he was embarrassed, he dodged the double-edged ax and stepped on the ax that was stuck in the ground, making Karuk bend down and then kicked him with a soccer kick.
Seeing that the distance had widened, Do-hyun took out the ‘Honest Ax God’s Iron Ax’ and threw it.
Swish-.
Karuk is a hidden field boss in his own right, and can easily be avoided by tilting his head back.
But that was bait.
Sigh!
[The effect of ‘Spider Dagger’ is activated. Goblin warrior Karuk suffers from the status abnormality ‘bleeding’.]
[The bleeding skill is activated.]
A deadly dagger was thrown at the heart that had stopped trying to dodge.
Luckily, the option explodes, causing bleeding damage that overlaps. Karuk let out a scream as his HP was steadily draining away.
[The HP of Hidden Field Boss ‘Goblin Warrior Karuk’ has decreased to 30%.]
[The trait ‘Great Warrior’ appears.]
[Goblin warrior Karuk enters battle continuation mode.]
Phase 2 has begun.
-Great warrior! Be careful…… no. It will take care of itself, yes.
Jihad, who had been shouting urgently at him, nodded before speaking.
Great Warrior characteristics?
It’s dangerous.
Continuation of battle, which can be seen as an upward compatibility with Warrior’s berserk, does not give a debuff to the opponent, but the increase in ability level is large.
Above all, there was a morale effect that prevented people from feeling pain, so there was no longer any need to reveal any loopholes due to pain.
[Karuuk’s physical abilities increase due to the Berserker trait.]
[Physical abilities are strengthened due to the physical strengthening characteristic.]
Is that all?
Berserkers become stronger the less blood they have, and even have body strengthening properties.
There was literally no particular combination of ignorant traits that became increasingly more powerful as one died, but what about all of that?
Whoosh- whoosh-.
Wow!
-That’s right.
No matter how fast and powerful it gets, it still won’t fit.
Will the gap caused by pain disappear?
The gap that was revealed when the posture collapsed during an attack had nothing to do with pain.
Deep!
[Bleeding occurs.]
In this way, Karuk was slowly but surely being hunted by Do-hyun.
It was only when Karuk was on the verge of death that Do-hyun realized that he was not just an annoying fly, but a predator.
[Hidden Field Boss ‘Goblin Warrior Karuk’’s HP is less than 5%.]
[Goblin warrior Karuk is suffering from the status abnormality ‘bleeding’.]
As the blood slowly drained, a cold, hardening sensation spread throughout my body.
Facing cold death, Karuk realized.
Kuruk…… .
From the beginning, he was just a prey.
Just as the prey always struggled in front of me, not wanting to die, he was also doing the same.
Feeling that his body could no longer move, Karuk remained standing and closed his eyes.
* * *
[The hidden field boss ‘Goblin Warrior Karuk’ has been defeated.]
[The reward is amplified by defeating the boss of the hidden field ‘Warriors’ Habitat’ for the first time.]
[The essence orb of the field boss ‘Goblin Warrior Karuk’ in the Hidden Field, ‘Habitat of Warriors’ appears.]
[It is recorded in the Adventure Book.]
[By using the sword to its limit, your swordsmanship skill has increased significantly.]
[Your swordsmanship proficiency has reached LV12.]
[The damage increase for sword-related attacks has increased to 11%.]
[The level increases.]
[You have achieved graduation level. A graduation quest is created.]
[The trials of the continent…… .]
[End recording.]
“woah…… .”
Do-hyun stuck out his tongue at the dizzying feast of messages that came to mind.
However, contrary to that reaction, there was a smile on his face.
‘Level up and sword skills!’
It was something that had no choice but to happen.
I achieved my goal level and even increased my swordsmanship proficiency, which was difficult to achieve.
There was a rumor that if you learn kendo, your sword skills will improve faster, and that was the moment when it was proven to be true.
This is because I gained greater proficiency experience by using parrying to the limit.
[Guardian Jihad Black’s level has increased.]
[Jihad Black]
[Title: Heroic Named Guardian]
[Type: Goblin]
[Level: 6]
[Loyalty: 23 / 100]
[Characteristics: Bloodline factor, witch doctor, necromancer, quick hands]
[Guardian characteristics: Strong and weak, Opportunist]
[Description: Survivor of a fallen clan.
Jihad, who carries on an outstanding lineage, is a goblin who has lived for hundreds of years. But now he lives as a human guardian.]
[Your current level is low and most of your abilities are sealed.]
[Available skills: 1]
-Create undead
Not only did Do-hyun’s level rise, but Jihad’s level also rose.
It rose little by little while hunting, but after coming to Hidden Field, it rose explosively and reached level 6.
You may wonder why it is only level 6, but by nature, guardians level up late.
‘Because the guardian’s maximum level is 70.’
Unlike users whose maximum level is level 100, the maximum level for guardians is 70.
The experience requirement is bound to be higher.
This was the reason why Guardians were treated as trash, but in the case of Shinsu, even at level 70, it showed an increase as much as that of a level 100 user, so it was not called a fraud for no reason.
‘He didn’t catch it himself, but this is a huge hit.’
I don’t know why, but my loyalty has increased and I’m already at 23.
It had to be seen that the situation was clearly entering a stable range. Do-hyun, who had passed the topic of jihad at this point, shifted his gaze to the water purification beads.
‘You said you would definitely run out of equipment, right?’
The reward I got from defeating Jihad was a car that I was deeply saddened to return to Jihad’s arms.
Since it is a melee type boss, won’t there be a useful reward this time?
With such anticipation, I wanted to harvest the essence beads right away, but it wasn’t the time yet.
[The linked quest ‘The Great Warrior’s Test’ has been completed.]
[The sudden quest ‘Test of the Warriors’ has been completed.]
[Test scores are being reviewed.]
[The conditions for completing the original test, ‘Bloody Battle’, have been exceeded. Complete all tests with ridiculous grades and your rewards will increase significantly.]
[As a reward, you will receive 200 gold, a lot of experience points, 2 intermediate skill draw tickets, and a Karuk leather top and bottom set.]
“oh my god…… .”
Because the reward from the unexpected quest was welcoming Do-hyun with open arms.
And that is a reward that far exceeds the original standard!
200 gold? A lot of experience?
All of that was meaningless as I had already reached level 24.
Right now, only two things caught Do-hyun’s eyes.
‘There are two intermediate skill drawing tickets!’
Intermediate skill drawing ticket increased to 2!
How can you not roll your eyes when you get two rewards that would seem like flying away if you only get one?
If it had been Do-hyun before, he would have been worried that a rare skill would be revealed, but it was different now.
“Ah, I am a man, a man with eyes of truth…… .”
Because he had the eyes of truth, a cheat to cheat.
-…… Here we go again. I don’t want to see it.
Jihad shook his head as he watched Do-hyun cry out gratitude to God for the first time with tears in his eyes.
When fighting, he was like a devil, but when he was playing cards or something, he looked like a bitch, which was a talent.
Ignoring Jihad, who was covering his eyes with his truly black hands, Do-hyun took out an intermediate skill drawing ticket.
[Would you like to use the Intermediate Skill Draw Ticket?]
“uh.”
Then, without fail, the card pack was torn apart and ten cards were scattered into the air with a crunching sound.
It was a slightly stronger beam of light than the low-level skill drawing ticket.
[The Eye of Truth activates.]
In reality, the visible light was a bit brighter.
The problem was that it was really a little brighter.
A whopping 7 poop-colored ones and 3 silver ones. It was an atrocious ratio of 7 to 3.
‘This is a mid-level skill drawing ticket…… .’
It was a probability that showed the strong will of Godose, who said that it included truly rare skills, but never said that it would be easy to obtain them.
If you add demrock, it will be more, never less.
‘This is why I failed to draw day and night Jangcheon.’
There was nothing to feel unfair about. It’s all in the past now.
Do-hyun stretched out his hand more confidently, as if shaking off his anger.
The moment I pulled out the second silver card, a silver ray of light pleasantly covered my vision.
